Direct linkStrat, Tonje Tomine Seland; Jegstad, Kirsti Marie – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2023
Inquiry-based science education (IBSE) has been a key element in science education for the past decade and should therefore be a key element of pre-service teacher (PST) education as well. This study aims to explore how IBSE is implemented in teacher education for primary and lower secondary levels (years 1-10) to prepare PSTs for their…

Tsaliki, Christina; Papadopoulou, Pinelopi; Malandrakis, George; Kariotoglou, Petros – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
In the last 30 years, there has been an ongoing discussion about the effectiveness of Professional Development (PD) programs, which aims to promote reform-based Science Education (SE). Among the many, different trends of reform-based science teaching, inquiry-based approaches hold a dominant role. This study shows how teachers' practices were…

Juuti, Kalle; Lavonen, Jari; Salonen, Visajaani; Salmela-Aro, Katariina; Schneider, Barbara; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
We present teacher-researcher partnership (TRP) as a way of fostering teachers' professional learning. Teachers' participation as research group members is an essential aspect of the partnership. Teachers and researchers share the same goal, which is to improve their understanding of and enhance students' engagement in science. Project-based…

Antink-Meyer, Allison; Parker, Margaret – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The inclusion of engineering in science learning standards draws attention to the need to support pre-service teachers' ability to teach engineering to young learners. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of two courses on pre-service elementary teachers' self-perceptions of their ability to teach engineering and on their design…

S. C. Lee; G. Nugent; G. M. Kunz; J. Houston – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2024
Research has highlighted the significant decline in teachers' implementation of newly acquired teaching practices following professional development (PD), primarily attributed to the absence of follow-up support. Even science teachers who have participated in intensive PD programs often encounter challenges in integrating new teaching practices…

Bielik, Tom; Finnie, Kellie; Peek-Brown, Deborah; Klager, Chris; Touitou, Israel; Schneider, Barbara; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
To meet the demands of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), teachers need to reconsider their current instructional practices, shifting from learning about scientific ideas to making sense of phenomena and solving problems using three-dimensional learning components. Project-Based Learning (PBL) provides a framework for creating…

Kaya, Fatma; Borgerding, Lisa A.; Ferdous, Tanzimul – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The purpose of the study is to understand secondary science teachers' self-efficacy beliefs and implementation of inquiry to provide information for the improvement of science education in a Midwestern U.S. state that has not yet adopted NGSS. An explanatory sequential mixed methods design was selected to capture both a broad perspective of…

Cian, Heidi; Marshall, Jeff; Qian, Meihua – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2018
Educational research continues to reiterate the need for inquiry-based instruction in secondary science. However, the patterns of how teachers implement inquiry-based pedagogy have not been thoroughly studied--particularly from a quantitative perspective. This study is based on data from 422 observations of 50 teachers collected during a 5-year…

OpenSciEd is an ambitious effort to implement the vision of the "Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the "Next Generation Science Standards" broadly across the United States. The premise of OpenSciEd is that high quality instructional materials can play a critical role in transforming science teaching and learning at a…

Miller, Emily C.; Severance, Samuel; Krajcik, Joseph – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
In "A Framework for K-12 Science Education," researchers call for teachers to make dramatic shifts in practice -- and sustain in these changes in practice -- so students can engage in rigorous and equitable three-dimensional science learning. Project-Based Learning (PBL) motivates students from diverse backgrounds to persist in learning.…

Lee, Soon C.; Jack, Ashlie R.; Novacek, Greg – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
Elementary students' interest in science and careers in STEM are typically associated with their curiosity along with engagement in science activities and whether they find these activities to be fun, exciting, and enjoyable. Thus, early exposure of elementary students to STEM lessons must be engaging and enjoyable, which in turn increases the…

Haas, Alison; Januszyk, Rita; Grapin, Scott E.; Goggins, Marcelle; Llosa, Lorena; Lee, Okhee – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2021
The adoption of "A Framework for K-12 Science Education" and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) across the U.S. requires that the field of science education develops high-quality instructional materials. This need is particularly urgent as schools and districts are expected to design or adapt instructional materials for an…

Adler, Idit; Zion, Michal; Rimerman-Shmueli, Esther – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2019
This study examined teachers' expressions of the dynamic characteristics of open inquiry, which emphasize the scientific, continuous, and flexible thinking and affective aspects associated with the inquiry process. Metacognitive prompts supported teachers' reflections as they engaged in an open inquiry process. Using both qualitative and…

Benegas, Julio; Villegas, Myriam – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2022
This work reports a classroom experience of a general physics course designed to foster also the initiation of preservice mathematics and biology teachers to physics pedagogical content knowledge. To modify the conceptions that these students have about teaching and learning, the course was taught using different active learning instructional…

Mandrikas, Achilleas; Stavrou, Dimitrios; Halkia, Krystallia; Skordoulis, Constantine – Journal of Science Teacher Education, 2018
In this article, we present the results of an implementation of a teaching-learning sequence that offered the opportunity to increase preservice elementary teachers' engagement with authentic activities in meteorology. In particular, we describe the results of a teaching-learning sequence with regard to the representation of winds on weather maps…
